"I accept my fate Govind. I have committed several sins in these past years without intention of committing them. But that doesn't change the fact that I am a sinner."Karn said during his death.
"You are a noble man Radheye. I grant you a boon. You will get what you want in your next life. Tell me what is it you that you want?" Karn said.
"Hey govind pray give me all the things that I deserved in this life but didnt achieve because of my birth status. Give me a fair life where I will be able to show my capabilities without any fear of being insulted for my caste." Karn said breathing his last breath.
"Tathastu!" Krishna said as Karn closed his eyes for the last time in the battlefield of Kurukshetra.
"You will get whatever you deserved Radheye.I promise you that . You have some unfinished business in this life of yours and you will complete them in your next life " Krishna said as a tear escaped his eyes on seeing the great warrior slain on the battlefield. Life has been unfair o Radheye.

"Hey Govind I heard about Angraj Karn's death.I dont know why but I feel morose and sad. I should be happy right? He called me a whore in the dyut sabha." Draupadi said.
"You too called him a sutaputra sakhi.  He is at fault surely but you know that you too have not been fair to him. That is the reason you feel sad. You feel guilty for the dead Radheye. Or is there anything else sakhi? Didnt you ever think about the consequences if you were married to Radheye Karn in the swayamvar?" Krishna asked with a smile.
Draupadi was taken aback. Not once but every single moment of her life has been spent thinking about the alternate decision. What would have happened if she was married to Karn? She would have led a humble life . But because of her foolishness she was stuck with five husbands. Gone is her love for Arjun who doesnt even treat her like his wife. 
"I know your life too has been unfair sakhi but dont worry you will get another chance and I promise you that." Krishna thought.

The Burning Rose  by Bree_Cloudburst
10 parts Ongoing Mature
A MAHABHARATA RETELLING ~~~ All the other flowers in the garden were brought up to envy the rose. Maybe shun it even. And admire it, too. Unusual ways. Too-red petals, too-sharp thorns, too-sweet fragrance. If only each flower did not have a mind of its own. If only stories were truly what one hand wrote them to be. If only the blood on every thorn was the fault of the rose and not that of the hunter. ~~~ Her breathing had suddenly halted as her eyes had accidentally landed on a piece of paper carelessly tucked under the lampholder on the bedside table. It looked like the work of a royal servant who had accidentally come across it while cleaning the room and then picked it up and tucked it away. She had carefully sat up and reached for it. The hot metal of the lampholder - like the one she had seen Draupadi seamlessly remove from a counter - had almost seared her palm, as she had hurriedly but carefully pushed it aside and retrieved the folded piece of what seemed like pearlescent paper. Touching it had felt like a grave invasion of privacy, but the curiosity that had suddenly roared and raced within her like a great river breaking free off a cliff. She had hurriedly unfolded the paper and had been greeted by a not-so-perfect handwriting and a volley of letters. It was a letter. A letter that looked like someone had ripped their heart out and presented it to someone on a piece of pearlescent paper. ~~~ WARNINGS: Scenes of intimacy and violence, possible hints of self-harm or similar intentions
Basavi Uruvi: A Forgotten Karna Sangini (Karna Series 4) by Amropali
92 parts Complete Mature
Uruvi, a golden hearted Princess of Pukeya, tried hard to change her destiny. She did not want to be married to anyone but unwantedly she befriended with two arch enemy Arjuna and Karna. One became her brother while another her husband. She tried to reconcile both of them with their wives, Arjuna with Chitrangada and Karna with Supriya. But would this big devotee and friend of Lord Krishna be sucessful in her endeavour? With whom her own destiny was then written? Who would be her friends and foes? Would she be loved and adored by all? Why Yuddhisthir loved her as his own sister? Why Duryodhan considered her as his friend and advisor? Why had wise Bhism considered her as as his own granddaughter? Could she convince Kunti to declare Karna as her first-born? Could she stop the great blood thirsty war of Mahabharata? Or would she also perish in this great blood thirsty battle along with her husband and sons? However Uruvi was not a well known as Karna Sangini. Mostly only one Karna's wife had been depicted. Some named her as Vrushali and some Padmavati. In the Ved Vyas Mahabharata the wife of Karna was only named as Karna-Sangini. Most would tell that the story of Uruvi was just a folklore and mentioned only in the scripts of South India. So kindly remember that fact before reading my book. She was Shankar Putri and Foster daughter of Bhumi Devi or mother earth. This is my original unpublished story and purely fan fiction and imaginative. It is copyrighted by only me. Nowhere except here it was published ever. It was not taken from any serial or book. It is part of my imagination. I don't want to hurt anyone's religious beliefs, feelings or sentiments.

NITYA - THE ETERNAL ONE (Editing) by grishuwrites
96 parts Complete Mature
(Nitya was lying on the floor on her stomach) (All the men present there except family members were laughing and of course making fun of her, while she was lying down) Dushashan : ye lijiye jyest, aapki dasi aapke samne prastut hai Nitya : mei kisiki dasi nhi hu!! (Nitya's voice was heard, it was cold and dark, hearing this, everyone paused their laughing session and looked at her keenly) (She stood up from her place and glanced at everyone who was looking at her with lustful eyes, her hair was messed up, saree was disheveled revealing some parts of the body, she was having wounds everywhere, moreover, all the sight of unknown men made her hella uncomfortable) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (Kunti took a deep breath) Kunti : tumhara jyest aur koi nhi, Karn hai!!! (Everyone gasped listening this, including Karn) (All looked at Kunti and Karn with wide eyes, no one was able to believe this fresh news) (Infact, Karn too didn't have any idea of this) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is a fanfiction starring another Sister of The Great Pandavas and Kauravas, Daughter of Madri and Pandu. She is a blessing from Lord Mahadev and Devi Parvati. Everyone knows about the Great Mahabharat, but I have added a twist by introducing a younger sister of Pandavas and Kauravas (Nitya) she is most loving, caring and supportive towards her Pandava brothers, she cannot tolerate insults for her family members, rather it be anyone, on the contrary Duryodhan too loves her as he expects no harm from her, but Nitya hates Kauravas as they always try Pandavas to get out of the way of Hastinapur and it's Throne. So, let's deep down more in the story and see The Great Mahabharata through the eyes of Nitya. This whole story is full of my imagination, it has nothing to do with the real Mahabharat. Started on : 24th November, 2023 Ended on : 22nd January, 2025
